Plot

Khorkuto is a heartwarming tale of love, family, and self-discovery. The story revolves around Gungun, a beautiful and sophisticated upper-class girl, who falls in love with Soujanyo, a middle-class scholar. Despite their different backgrounds, they get married, but with a condition: they will divorce after a year, once Gungun completes and passes her exams.

As Gungun becomes a part of Soujanyo's joint family, she wins their hearts with her kindness and generosity, despite her rough edges. However, their happiness is short-lived, as a series of events and misunderstandings threaten to tear them apart.

The family faces various challenges, including the return of Sukollan, who reveals a long-hidden truth about Jhum and Debolina's past. Meanwhile, Gungun discovers her real identity and forms a bond with Adil, her long-lost brother.

As the story unfolds, Gungun and Soujanyo's love is put to the test. The family must come to terms with their mistakes and learn to forgive and understand each other.

The show takes a dramatic turn with Gungun's sudden death, leaving behind a devastated Soujanyo and their young son. The story jumps 25 years forward, where Dr. Sourin "Ishaan" Mukherjee, Gungun and Soujanyo's son, is introduced. He falls in love with Dr. Shrotoshwini "Gungun" Majumder, a therapist. The family is overjoyed to see history repeat itself, as the next generation of Soujanyo and Gungun embark on their own journey of love and discovery.
